Sports Performance Therapists in Austin, TX

It is time to heal the split. Red vs Blue. Autonomy vs Community. Masculine vs Feminine. Mind vs Body. Earth vs. Human. Rationality vs Intuition. Science vs Spirit. All of these divisions have created monstrous cracks in our collective and inner landscapes, which have been making us sick psychologically, physically, and spiritually. However, for those who are willing to slow down and step into these cracks, therein lies the space and possibility for something new and more beautiful to emerge. We have become fractured and fragmented by a misunderstood myth of separation.

In this moment, it feels like life has hit a standstill—be it in school, work, or relationships. Things don't quite resonate as they once did, and thoughts of the past, your strengths, and what propelled you forward occupy your mind. It seems others struggle to grasp your experiences, making communicating your needs feel daunting. Yet, within this pause, there's an opportunity for gentle exploration and understanding. Together, we can navigate these feelings, uncover hidden strengths, and rebuild connections, fostering a path toward personal growth and renewed fulfillment.

After battling addiction for many years, I discovered a new way to live through psychotherapy, the 12-steps, physical fitness, & spiritual practice. Ramtha said, "Your greatest accomplishment in life will be living through it." Today, living is my way of life. Today, I can look at myself in the mirror without shame, guilt, sadness, & self-hatred. I can appreciate my past & not run from it. I can form meaningful loving relationships with others because I have first learned how to love myself. I have learned how to overcome obstacles and cope with worry, anxiety, & depression. I have learned to enjoy every moment, good or bad...

Regardless of where you are in life, my goal is to provide a space where you can feel understood, supported, & empowered.

I can help you explore difficult emotions, strengthen your relationships, and develop healthy communication skills, boundaries, and coping skills.

Did you think you had this handled but it keeps coming up? Learning new coping strategies to change your behavior is often temporary but there is a better solution - change your brain.

You don't need to be alone. Through therapy, I help people who seek connection. I help people identify connections between past and present relationships, their body, and brain. Understanding how these interact and influence one another helps empower people to take control of their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

Identifying when and why specialized neural systems are activated helps people gain self-awareness, prepare for action, and implement change.
